A blond, twin-gun wielding Saif looks cool as a zombie hunter in his upcoming flick

Saif Ali Khan has donned many looks over the years, yet there seems to be nothing more radical than the avatar you will see him sporting in his upcoming zombie flick, Go Goa Gone.

Saif plays a Russian mafia lord called Boris, who is also a merciless zombie hunter. In the pictures, you will see Saif toting twin guns in Tomb Raider style, with his hair all blond, as he shoots the brains out of the unfortunate creatures! Besides having a mean, killer streak, Saif’s character will also lean towards the funny side, albeit dark, as he goes on a killing spree. “I loved Boris from the first time I discovered him. He is tough and cool, but also very funny. He has a good heart and is brave. The dynamics between him and the boys is hysterical. I was very excited to play Boris – the zombie hunter, and even happier to produce this film,” said Saif, whose company Illuminati Films is producing the movie.

Directed by Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK (makers of Shor In The City), Go Goa Gone will be the second zombie flick after Luke Kenny’s Rise Of The Zombie to hit the Bollywood screen this year. The film releases on May 10 and others actors in this zom-com include Kunal Khemu, Vir Das, Anand Tiwary and Puja Gupta.

Directed by Luke Kenny and Devaki Singh, Rise Of The Zombie looks like an interesting watch

Starring Luke Kenny, Kirti Kulhari, Ashwin Mushran and Benjamin Gilani, Rise Of The Zombie is slated to release on February 22, 2013. Now that Bollywood is all set to experiment with the whole zombie concept, it’s quite exciting to see filmmakers play around with this idea. So while Go Goa Gone, which is a zombie film again with Saif Ali Khan and Puja Gupta in the lead, promises to give a funny take on those dreadful creatures, Rise Of The Zombie on the other hand is more serious and scary. We hear that the film is about a human who experiences certain changes in life that seem to take his humanity away from him. And when he is out of control, all hell breaks loose. Luke Kenny plays the protagonist in the movie whose character steps into the shoes of a wildlife photographer and how circumstances transform him into a terrible blood-sucking monster.

The poster shows a hand smeared in blood scraping through a dry terrain, and the trailer manages to convey that watching the film is going to be nothing less than a nail-biting journey. And as the promo says – ‘prepare to witness the story of the ultimate human fear’, we really wait and watch if the preparation is going to be worth it after all!
